What is the difference between return 0; return 1; return -1; in C programming Language ?

0 means program worked succesful
1 means general error
-1 means 255 beacuse main cannot return negative exit status

Assuming these are exit codes, it's kindof up to you what they mean (it's why documentation is nice), but lots of programs use these numeric codes for interprocess communication / logging:
Microsoft:
https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/desktop/debug/system-error-codes
Linuxes (just an example; there are other lists):

[meta, for readers]
Note that negative return codes will wrap around as Olek Szczepura indicates; Microsoft errors like (-2147217865 ) are often more easily found converted to hexadecimal: 0x80040e37
